To edit, follow these steps

Look at the top section of the Main page and locate the "Discussion" page. At the top, find the "New Topic (+)" button. This will direct you to a new page where you can enter your information. You will need a title. I suggest it be the name of the page or institution from which you have found your resource. The body should contain your citation first, followed by your summary and conclusions based on the assignment requirement. When you have completed, click "Save Changes" and create another page for your next resource. Done!

To view others' resources, click on them, and they will appear. If it doesn't, I must have done something wrong; please let me know, and I will fix it.

Enjoy the process!
